A bullet-heaven auto-battler where you play as a Natural Killer cell. Every enemy on screen is a real biological process.

Gameplay: a lone cyan NK cell surrounded by a swarm of tumor cells against a dark tissue wall, a remission meter running across the top of the screen

MECHANICS DRAFT

Built from the disease up.

No re-skinned zombies. The biology came first, and the mechanics follow from it. What you fight in the game is what your body fights in real life.

THREATTIER · MODERATE

Mitotic Surge

Enemies split into fresh clones when they die.

Cancer cells divide by mitosis. Uncontrolled replication is what makes cancer, cancer.

THREATEVENT · PHASE 2

Cytokine Storm

Your fire rate doubles, but you take chip damage.

A dangerous immune overreaction that damages the host, not only the target.

THREATAURA · PARACRINE

Membrane Signal

Enemies broadcast buffs to the cells around them.

Paracrine signaling. Cancer uses it to reshape the tissue in its favor.

BUFFWEAPON · MEMORY

Perforin Rail

A rail that punches through a line of cells. Evolves into Granzyme Payload.

Perforin drills the membrane, granzymes trigger apoptosis. How your NK cells actually kill.

BUFFGOAL · 4,000 UNITS

Remission Meter

A 4,000-unit biomass bar that fills toward victory.

Tumor burden reduction. The measurable goal of real cancer treatment.

BUFFUNIT · PLAYER

NK Cell / You

Automatic weapons that reward constant motion.

Natural Killer cells patrol nonstop and kill cancer cells on contact.

BOSS · THREE PHASESTIER · CRITICAL

THE SARCOMA CORE

Strip its calcified bone armor, expose the soft tissue underneath, then survive the necrotic inflammation surge. Straight from real sarcoma pathology.

Specimen Sheet

Every mechanic maps to a real one.

The whole design rule in one table. The left column is what you do. The right column is what your body actually does.
